Father some of us come wearied by the cares of this world
Our hearts are broken
Our minds confused
Our strength is gone
Others come holding firm to things that keep us from you
We grasp so tightly to our hurts, disappointments and fears…
We cannot even begin to reach out for help and relief
Father, I pray for fresh revelation of your love to overwhelm us
Revive us Lord
May we encounter you in such a way that we are compelled towards your heart and away from our own
May your Word – your Living Word – come alive in us in a way that we have never experienced
Like your breath upon the dry bones in the valley…breathe your Spirit upon us and in us! Make us alive!
For You are God
Who forgives all our sins
Who heals all our diseases
Who redeems us from the pit
Who is faithful and true
You are God
Who loves from everlasting to everlasting
May your love drenched living breath bring a song to our lips…
“Praise The Lord all my soul – all that is within me praise his holy name!”
May we never stop singing!
Awaken in us a passion for your presence.
Open our eyes to see your Kingdom now and
May we be ready for the kingdom to come
Move mightily upon us,
Move mightily in us and
Move mightily through us
Thank you, Denise. I’m joining you in that prayer.
Amen, my friend. Thank you for this beautiful prayer. I’ve found myself wishing we could sit and talk about Haiti. It means so much to share with someone who understands. Thank you for your kind support and all your grace.
Laura, how I wish we could sit face to face sharing words, hearts and tears.
